She



When I look at her
My heart doesn't beat
It ebbs and retreats;
A shower of leaves
Surround me
And I laze myself in love

When I look at her
My feet doesn't wobble
But it refuse to move;
In trance, they stay
Glued to the view

When I look at her
My eyes do not see
But it doesn't wander
Either, for this miracle
In lace stays in their
Frame forever.

When I look at her
I don't see any other life
No smiles or beings
Just hers that flower
Around me in
Permanent bloom

When I look at her
I see not just her,
But me too, as I stand
There, unable to
Remember nothing
But her.
